Edit summaries
Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Lakshmi Mittal does not have an edit summary.&#32;Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:
 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision differences
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list and
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! 220  of  Borg 05:46, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Unsourced changes
Please do not add or change content, as you did to Lakshmi Mittal, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. 220  of  Borg 06:46, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Lakshmi Mittal
Please note that I have looked into Mittals' date of birth (DoB) and it appears that his stated date of birth is 15 June 1950, though some sources say otherwise, and that he may have misled about his exact date of birth. In future, please, as said above, do not change such information without, a reliable source. and ideally an edit summary saying why the change is being made. Biographies of living persons (WP:BLP) are often subjected to vandalism where dates are changed without reason, which is why I was dubious about your edit, especially as it was unexplained.

• Your edit/s only changed the infobox. The DoB appeared in two other places. (Now three as I have added a little bit to the text bout his DoB) I have also added cites to the footnotes, so any one questioning the date can see the sources.

• In future please do not appear to edit war, by reverting without explanation. Regards, 220  of  Borg 07:06, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Andrew Carnegie. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to being blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. – Paine EllsworthC LIMAX ! 13:58, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
